About Woolmar
Woolmar is a small rural locality in South East Queensland's Somerset Region, situated in the rolling hills of the D'Aguilar Range foothills approximately 15 kilometres south of Kilcoy and around 75 kilometres northwest of Brisbane. Home to approximately 565 residents across 65 square kilometres, Woolmar is a quiet pastoral community that has retained its rural character amid the gradual expansion of South East Queensland's regional hinterland. The area sits within the federal electorate of Blair and the state electorate of Nanango.
The lifestyle in Woolmar is decidedly rural, with hobby farms, equestrian properties, and small cattle holdings forming the backbone of the local landscape. Residents enjoy the region's natural beauty, including access to nearby lakes, state forests, and the Somerset Dam catchment area. The town of Kilcoy provides essential services including schools, a hospital, and shopping, while the Brisbane metropolitan area is accessible within roughly 90 minutes by car.
